trooper 940 Posted February 22, 2020 Author Share Posted February 22, 2020 Bruce: The one thing they didn’t do was give up, and that’s not a problem. But we have to have more of a threat to win matches in the Premier League. Arsenal and Palace away, both are not easy games, but we didn’t cause enough problems in the final third and that’s what we have got to try and address.

Howay 12496 Posted February 22, 2020 Share Posted February 22, 2020 We also did nothing at all against Norwich, and he can’t try and pretend that’s a tough game. He apparently said we’d switch things up for this match and changed nothing, so I’d expect the same front 3 next match. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wykikitoon 20168 Posted February 22, 2020 Share Posted February 22, 2020 Last few times I've listened to 5live I've been agreeing with Sutton. He was ripping cabbage head earlier regarding Joleinton and how he doesn't like scoring goals which is weird for a forward lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
acrossthepond 877 Posted February 22, 2020 Share Posted February 22, 2020 Can't wait to hear more about Bruce's hometown club and spirit and what a great job he's done and his points total being better than Rafa's and how the football is so much better as well.

Kid Dynamite 7031 Posted February 22, 2020 Share Posted February 22, 2020 Shades of Mclaren's season here. 27 games in and the same post match sound bites week in, week out from Bruce have lost any shred of credibility. It means fuck all. Basic shit still is still happening like Joelinton tackling someone at his own corner flag and then looking for someone up front to pass it to Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ayatollah Hermione 13873 Posted February 22, 2020 Share Posted February 22, 2020 I'd honestly put Almiron through the middle if he wasn't so one-footed. It would require an entire change of approach that our knacker gaffer isn't capable of putting together though, right from the tactics to the coaching. Honestly, if we stay up (and I think the sides below us will struggle to put wins together tbf), they should really be shaking Bruce's hand for having things not be a total shitshow, retaining some of the morale from Rafa and kindly telling him to fuck off and employ a manager who can knit an £80 million front line, a defence that knows each other well and two bright young midfield talents into a team that doesn't resemble a load of hungover Sunday league shithouses. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ewerk 30620 Posted February 22, 2020 Share Posted February 22, 2020 It’s amazing that we have two of a front three performing reasonably well individually but yet as a package our front three are dog shit. It’s nearly as if they would benefit from some ‘coaching’ or form of ‘gameplay’. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Really, Bruce said that? well I've said it before and I'll say it again! A back 3 is not working for us, we need to have a back 4. Joelinton needs to be dropped and St.Max and Miggy need to play up front in a 4-4-2 system. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

strawb 4268 Posted February 23, 2020 Share Posted February 23, 2020 We need to ply 4-2-3-1 to get more support to the striker since none of them can hold the ball up. Our central midfielders would probably get over run because they aren’t mobile enough and I doubt Bruce could set them up to defend well enough without a 3rd centre back though. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could put Matty Longstaff next to Bentaleb with Sean Longstaff as the 10. Matty could transform into the Ginger Kante. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matty could transform into the Ginger Kante. Think putting Richie back on the right and moving Almiron in the 10 would be better going forward. He isn’t my favourite player but Hayden needs to play centre midfield, he can get about a bit and wins the ball back a decent amount. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
